Spork, an Amelia Bedelialike extraterrestrial, joins Mrs. Buckle's third-grade class to learn all he can about Earth. Along the way, the class learns character-building lessons that help both them and Spork grow. Accompanied by fuzzy black-and-white illustrations, these easy-to-read chapter books deliver their messages with a light touch. An activity reinforcing the lesson and a true/false space-fact quiz are appended.
